World Cup 2022 semifinals preview – Who will make it to the finals?

The semifinals of the 2022 World Cup are set, with Argentina taking on 2018 finalists Croatia while the defending champions France battle underdogs Morocco.

The two games will be played on the 13fh and 14th of December, with Argentina’s game against Croatia first, before France vs Morocco. The two teams eliminated from the semi-finals will play the third place play-off one day before the finals, on December 17. 

Argentina vs Croatia – World Cup 2022 Preview 

Lionel Messi’s Argentina are one of the favourites to win the tournament this year. And they have been playing like champions throughout the campaign. Their first defeat against Saudi Arabia seems like a distant memory now, with a place in the last four sealed. 

Croatia have won both their knockout games on penalties, while Argentina did the same with their quarter final fixture against Netherlands.

Both teams possess immense quality across the field, but Croatia have shown the heart and passion to come back from losing positions to win. It will be a battle for the ages between two of the top-performing teams in the World Cup this year, for a coveted spot in the finals. 

France vs Morocco – World Cup 2022 preview 

A true David vs Goliath fixture if there was one this year, the defending champions have their eyes set on the trophy once again. But, Morocco are yet to let an opposition player score against them at the World Cup. 

France have shown that they possess the quality to unlock the tightest of defenses – and Morocco’s resolute low block will have to be on point to cope with the immense pressure.

Despite the mismatch in the perceived quality between the two teams, it will be a match decided on the finest of margins, given the way things have been going.
